dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

Random DPD Pick:


7 And 7 Is
by: The Ramones
from: Acid Eaters

Picked By: darpino
For: DPD: 058 - John, Jhon, Johnny

The unique blend of sound that the Ramones created combining 60's Garage, Bubblegum Pop and Stooges riffs comes full circle on the album Acid Eaters. On it the Ramones cover a slew of their favorite classics and inspirations. This cover of Love's "7 and 7 is" blows the doors off the rest of the album.

With hindsight the original version probably is one of the progenitors of the Punk sound, but its fucking awesome to have The Ramones giving it the nod in such a great fashion. This was recorded in the 90's but sounds as vital as anything off of their first 4 albums.
